Ye Shiqi followed her elder sisters out, solely concerned about the long-term workers laboring on the estate. Among the five sisters, except for the younger Shiqi whom the elder sisters wouldn't allow into the kitchen to work.
The four elder sisters of the Ye family, along with their maids, busied themselves in the kitchen: boiling mung bean soup and heating water.
These tasks would not be done at home, but at the estate in the kitchen.
The estate indeed had a kitchen, and the long-term workers would be there guarding the estate, eating their three meals a day there.
Of the two Ye estates, the five sisters would not visit both; they boiled water and cooked mung bean soup in the kitchen.
The soup was distributed to the people assigned to this estate, and then the five sisters carried two buckets of mung bean soup on an ox cart to the other estate.
At the other estate, there were also only long-term workers guarding it, and Uncle was there too.
